Men are fun to be loved by, and they get pleasure from it. She may feel “If she enjoys his love, he will be sexually aroused by it, and they will have a good relationship”. And the false covenant, “She can make him feel like a man, if she enjoys his love, sexually arousing him by her treasuring and delighting in his love, seeing, he enjoy the experience of loving her, and the pleasure of being love by her and his love treasured and delighted by her, they will be together forever”.
Women are pleasurable to be loved by, and they get excitement from it. He may feel “If he enjoys her love, she will be sexually aroused by it, and they will have a good relationship”. And the false covenant, “He can make her feel like a woman, if he enjoys her love, sexually arousing her by him treasuring and delighting in her love, seeing, she enjoy the experience of loving him, and the excitement of being loved by him and her love treasured and delighted by him, they will be together forever”.
Insecurities may make one fall for the false covenants ‘She desires my love, therefore we will be together forever’, or ‘He treasures and delights in my ability to love him, therefore we will be together forever’. Having a friendship closer then a brother, or a friendship closer than a sister, and you can trust her or him to be a family, is a more fulfilling and rewarding relationship. And an expression of grace, so you can be a friend closer then a brother or sister and be a family, is a true covenant, one can rest in. There is safety, freedom, and charity in friendship.
